Giordano

The route is just left of a huge crack/fracture the runs up the entire wall.  Part of the climb is on that edge.  Hardest part is probably the first and second pitch.  Steeper if climbed direct.  Most variations funnel into an often wet corner second to last pitch. Stay left of the crack on the better rock.  

Go right from the top 100 feet and start down a gully.  A 25 meter rappel off a huge ring is needed.  The rappel is overhanging (can’t down climb this one).  Follow a trail along the small and exposed ledge south until it meets the scree.

I thought this was a really fun route.  The descent makes it possible to do other routes on the wall nearby.  Good rock, 45 minute approach and 30 minute back to the base.  If it had not started to rain, I would have climbed it again.

One of several routes on the right side of the wall of Lagazuoi Piccolo.  Park near the Sassi Fort Museum.  Giordano is the furthest right.  Good steep, gray rock that you can wonder around on.  The more direct, the harder.

I did not see any fixed gear but ample opportunities for pro.
